WHING’S READY TO TAKE OFF

ANDY Whing believes newlook Solihull Moors possess the artillery to banish last season's double Wembley dismay - he's just short of bullets at the moment.

Not many had Moors in their tips for the top when Whing arrived just over a year ago but he led the club to the play-off and FA Trophy finals, enduring the heartbreak of penalty shootout defeats in both.

Since then, creative catalyst Joe Sbarra has moved on to Doncaster Rovers, while loaned frontrunners Tyrese Shade and Nana Boateng ended up with league rivals Eastleigh and Sutton United respectively after exits from their parent clubs.

Mark Beck, who notched twice against Gateshead in the Trophy decider, was transfer listed and joined the Heed on loan, and while Tahvon Campbell and Jack Stevens remain they have joined loan signing James Gale on the sidelines.
